[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 1560866, member: 5675"] Jason's Maul whistled around, crushing the skull of the creature behind him, before he stepped back towards the door. Yvgeny rapidly intoned the words to a prayer, and touched Aeron's prone form, restoring his health somewhat before also stepping back towards the door. Unfortunately, this left Aeron, prone and only just recovering, on the floor between the two creatures, which stepped up to either side of him, and unleashed a series of slashing attacks, tearing through Aeron's throat, killing him outright. Stedd and Jason managed to slay one of the two remaining ghouls, before they realized that the one remaining was entirely unhurt. "Pull back!" Stedd yelled to the others. "We're never going to win!" At this point, the creature pounced forwards, slashed once at Stedd, before leaping away through a set of double doors, and hurling itself into a glowing shaft of light, which sent it hurtling upwards. "It's gone for reinforcements! Run!" Pausing only to scoop most of the larger pieces of Aeron into a [I]Portable Hole[/I], the group turned on their heels and fled. A rapid [I]Fly[/I] spell ensured that Stedd wouldn't need to be carried, and then the group thanked their luck stars that they had been in the castle for such a short period of time that their flying abilities were still with them. They retreated to the hole in the wall, before diving out into the blackness beyond. They briefly debated the possibility of going back to the building they had camped in the previous night, but decided to leave the city entirely as a [I]Scrying[/I] sensor opened up near them. Halbrinn was able to counter it by sacrificing his own [I]Scry[/I] spell, chanting the words in reverse to negate the magics. They fled, hurtling out of the city to their previous campsite. [/QUOTE]
